20090126113 | Rotatable Surgery Table - A surgical table for infants and small animals has a bed assembly that is rotatable. The bed assembly includes a stationary plate and a rotating plate with a brake that controls rotation. The bed assembly may be connected by a clamp to the frame of a conventional operating table and supported alongside or above. The bed assembly may also be permanently mounted on its own vertical support. The bed assembly may also be permanently mounted to the operating table by an articulated clamp that allows the bed assembly to be stored alongside. A central opening is present in both plates so that hoses and wires connected to the patient will pass through this opening to permit rotation of the patient with the table with no stress on the hoses or wires where they connect to the patient. | 05-21-2009 |
20100122414 | PEDIATRIC CRANIOFACIAL SURGICAL TABLE - A pediatric surgical table configured to allow easy and quick positioning of an infant prior to craniofacial surgery which includes a head cradle with cheek supports, a chest ramp and a body support pad. The body support pad is provided with an abdominal trough to facilitate unhindered abdominal movement during breathing and a genital trough to allow placement of a urinary catheter. The chest ramp stabilizes the infant once positioned and decreases the risk of hyperextension of the neck. The cheek supports reduce the risk of ocular compression and a open chin rest area allows unrestricted placement of endotracheal tube. Straps are provided to secure the infant in place. The orientation of the chest ramp and head cradle allows for substantial adjustment of cervical extension and provides the surgeon with clear and unobstructed access to the frontal, parietal and occipital portion of the infant's skull. | 05-20-2010 |
20120084920 | PEDIATRIC EMERGENCY TRANSPORT DEVICE - A device for emergency transport of pediatric patients that safely and efficiently transports a pediatric patient to a medical facility is described. The device facilitates a variety of rapid attachment mechanisms to support emergency medical personnel's ongoing need to quickly transport pediatric patients despite continuously, significantly changing specifications for conventional stretchers. Additionally, the device provides for safer, more stable transport of infants and more effective treatment of children with severe temperature imbalances. | 04-12-2012 |
20120260427 | Newborn Circumcision Board - A circumcision board may include a generally rectangular board of a hard but lightweight plastic with a memory foam pad covered with disposable plastic sheet. The board may feature a drainage hole to facilitate draining of fluids that may be released during the procedure (i.e., blood or urine). Disposable restraint straps may be secured to the sides of the board to hold the infant down firmly but comfortably. The board may also feature a raising top portion for the child's comfort and for ease of positioning the child and possible prevention of aspiration. The upper half of the board could be adjusted by use of a quick-release mechanism. The entire board may lay completely flat when the top portion is not raised, and may be suitable for storage or for easy transport. | 10-18-2012 |
20130074264 | Positioning Device And Method Of Use - A positioning device is described for supporting an infant with myelomeningocele during surgery, transport and pre- and post-operative procedures. The device allows the patient to be expeditiously re-positioned from prone to supine and lateral positions and vice versa before, during and after surgery. The device allows access to the myelomeningocele while the patient is secured in the device. | 03-28-2013 |
20140208511 | APPARATUS FOR CARING FOR INFANTS - An apparatus for caring for infants, which is used for caring for infants at home or during visits of doctor's offices, public places or private homes. The apparatus relates to cribs and bouncers for caring for infants and protects infants from respiratory infections. | 07-31-2014 |
20140289963 | Positioning Device And Method Of Use - A positioning device is described for supporting an infant with myelomeningocele during surgery, transport and pre- and post-operative procedures. The device allows the patient to be expeditiously re-positioned from prone to supine and lateral positions and vice versa before, during and after surgery. The device allows access to the myelomeningocele while the patient is secured in the device. | 10-02-2014 |
20150328074 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TILTING AN INFANT-CARE MEDICAL DEVICE - A method and system tilts an infant-care medical device. In one example, the method and system pivots the infant-care device about the tilt axis by releasing a tilt platform of the infant-care medical device using an actuator to allow the tilt platform to pivot about the tilt axis. The method and system also selectively adjusts a rotational position of the tilt platform relative to a tilt axis. As the tilt platform pivots about the tilt axis, the system and method dampens pivoting of tilt platform using a damper. As so dampened, the pivoting of the tilt platform is counter-balanced such that vibration and/or movements that may be felt by an infant within the infant-care medical device may be reduced. | 11-19-2015 |
20160095778 | Infant Support Device - An infant holding device, including an infant holding portion, including a ductile sheet covered with infant-compatible material and a stand portion, adapted to support the infant holding portion in a vertically diagonal position, so that the infant holding portion thereby has a top and a bottom. In one preferred embodiment the ductile sheet is made of aluminum. In an additional preferred embodiment the infant holding portion is separable from the stand portion. | 04-07-2016 |
